my name is Rosie, and I live in Sydney Australia. I love coffee, wine, whisky and the colour pink. My partner Scott and I got engaged in April 2020, when our state was in full lockdown! We’re getting married at a vineyard in the Southern Highlands in February, having postponed from September!

1744 days agoSo the thing about wedding dresses is, you buy them well in advance of the day so you can't be sure whether the weather will suit what you've bought - and real talk, most of us have an image in our head of what we'd like our dress to look like and...

1749 days agoSO! I am curious who you invited to your final dress fitting, and why! My dress is currently stuck at my alteration lady's house, and neither of us can get to each other. Our wedding has bene postponed another 6 months, so it's not quite as urgent...

1769 days agoSo, due to ongoing lockdown restrictions - we've had to postone our September wedding. We have contacted all of our vendors and supplied them with a spreadsheet to fill out their Thursday through Saturday availability over the next 6 months in the...

1772 days agoI've seen a few posts lately about whether to add sleeves to their dresses for a cooler-weather wedding (I've posted that myself as it happens!) and it got me think about to what extent you considered the weather/season/environment/venue when picking...

1778 days agoOk so we are supposed to get married in September (we are now 59 days away) and there are a number of covid restrictions right now which mean we can't even travel to our wedding venue, although hopefully that will change. If we can travel to our...

1786 days agoOk, so we've all seen those articles where people are wearing some of the wildest, most heinous dresses imaginable. You know the ones - '50 of the worst wedding dresses ever' etc! But what's the worst/wildest/most unusual/most fun dress you've...

1800 days agoHere in Australia, bachelorette parties are more commonly call a Hen's Do, and men's are called a Stag Night (which makes no sense, shouldn't it either be a Hen's do and a Cockerel's night, or a Stag Night and a Doe night? ANYWAY!) It's less common...

1804 days agoSo last night I was asking fiance what kind of dress he thought I'd picked! He is positive he knows the silhouette (he totally does) and has some thoughts on other elements - whether it's backless, strapless, frontless or sideless, whether it will be...

1805 days agoWe are having what I believe is known as a banquet set-up, which resembles a cricket wicket - 1 long bridal table along the top, plus 3 legs, kind of like an E. I hadn't planned on having table number at all, since there's only 3 tables and if you...

1807 days agoWedding Wiries! (Is there a name for us here?) When did you begin your decor item buying sprees? Before you chose a venue? After? A week before the wedding? Were you one of those people who collected vintage jars from op-shops for years before your...

1820 days agoSo we did our tentative wedding seating plan last night and I have to be honest - before we started I'd heard it was one of THE WORST parts of planning! Now, to be fair my family live mostly overseas so I only had 20 or so guests to place compared to...

1828 days agoSo I had my first fitting today! And I’m a bit torn. I originally wanted a dress with sleeves, but I couldn’t get one! So, I bought extra fabric with the intention of potentially adding them, although I was ok if it couldn’t be done – I’d prefer no...

1829 days agoEek!! I'm so excited. The dress has hung in my house for the past 6 months and tomorrow is finally my first fitting! I would be less nervous except Aunt Flo has turned up just in time to attend with me I plan to bring: * the dress (obviously!) * the...

1833 days agoI have been thinking about the logistics and options for our send off, and am curious to hear what other people are doing, because I can't quite figure out how to best make this work. We have our photographer for 10 hours, and by our timeline, he...

1840 days agoHow are you all going, and what do you have left to do? we are on the 18th, and I'm so excited, but also nervous that there's something important we have forgotten to book. We have mostly boring, non-fun stuff left to plan - * Finding and buying some...

1843 days agoI'm interested to hear how people have marked out those with allergies or dietary restrictions to the catering staff as part of their table settings? I've heard a lot of people use coloured stickers on their place names or on their menus, but I've...
